I'm with JRut.
I don't see a block or a charge. Contact doesn't necessarily mean a foul should be called. People will tell you basketball is not a contact sport, to which I say "fooey" (or maybe a more colorful word, lol). Sure, it's not a collision sport like football, but there is plenty of legal contact going on. I use the word "displacement" instead of "contact".
As far as the foul, the defender did extend his arms forward a bit and out of his verticality. So I have no problem with that foul call.
